Ranboo's POV:

3...2...1... Alarms, as they start going off I hide by the door until the guards open the door and start giving orders. I hit them and knock them out. I run out and through the halls, I see other people running with me. We have been planning this for months.

I have been here for 2 years, I am scard, physically and mentally. It started with phil, the elytrain. He was the one that started this plan for freedom. We have many new members, certain people were assigned to help them. I'm in a giant group of people but hear a gun shot...

Almost all of us freeze. Then I see him... Tubbo. He's holding a gun and pointing at the group scanning it. Many more guards come and stand by him. "So... You guys decided to escape... Well then let's see... Ah, Ranboo, it's good to see you" Tubbo says, gesturing for me to walk up. I wouldn't normally but comply because people's lives are at risk.

"Good, now oh wait... Tommy, come join us" He says looking behind me. I then hear footsteps and see Tommy next to me. We were in the same hallway, same with the elytrain, but he's helping others. "Isn't it so great to have a reunion" Tubbo says sarcastically.

"Now... My father is a few towns away, but the moment he hears of this he'll be here in about... 1 and a half hours. So we'll want to move quick." Tubbo says, confusing us. "What?" Tommy questions. "I saw through his lies finally, besides, he used me as a test experiment. Nice new looks" Tubbo explains.

I look the same as a year ago, but Tommy has gotten small wings and feathers in his hair. "Wait, experiment?" I ask. "Well, let's say that these people have been testing turning humans to 'beasts' for awhile. Now, we're running out of time, let's lead your group away."

I wanted to ask more questions, but Tubbo was right, we were running out of time. But how can we trust him? He tricked me and got me here and is most likely the reason Tommy's in here. "How can we trust you?" I question, we were walking, the group following us.

"Well, two years ago I just listened to what my father told me to do. I didn't tell him your 'secret' after I found out. But after a while I made the mistake of it." Tubbo starts. "And I didn't even know they took Tommy. I thought he was ignoring me because he was mad"

"I guess that's a good explanation" Tommy says. "I know that you guys won't completely trust me, I wouldn't either, but if you want to get out, I'm your best bet" Tubbo added. After that we just continued to follow Tubbo, luckily the guards were with him and so we felt secure.

Tommy's POV:

This is possibly the stupidest thing I've done to date. I'm leaving a building that I'm not supposed to, full of lots of guards who have guns. Great :). We've been walking for awhile, I never knew how big the building was, but, I have only seen a few rooms.

"Stop!" I hear a voice yell, who is that. We all stop and look ahead... Tubbo's time frame may have been a little off. There stands the owner of this building, Tubbo's father, Jshlatt. "Tubbo, what are you doing with my years of work" he asks looking right at Tubbo.

"They're not your work, they are people, that you kidnapped, that you hurt" Tubbo responds. "What happened to you, you were so obedient" Shlatt questioned. "I learned" Tubbo argued. Even though Tubbo's acting all brave, from being his friend since we were children, I knew he was terrified.

"Don't put on that brave face, you're not fouling anyone. Besides you don't know how to even aim a gun. And now that I'm back, these guards will listen to me" with him saying those words, the guards walk over and stand by him. I hear calm(?) footsteps walking up to the front of the group.

"Now Shlatt, why are you threatening your son, and all these people?" The elytrain, no Phil says? How is he just talking to him so calmly. How does he know his name? "Phil, long time no see. And I'm not threatening Tubbo, I'm warning him and all these other idiots who thought they could get out, including you"

"Not very nice to call us idiots, but you've never been a nice man so, checks out" Phil walks in front of us and stops. "You know just because you can't die of old age doesn't mean I can't shoot you now and be done with you" Shlatt states. "Yeah, so why don't you? Shot me Shlatt" Phil, saying this, puts his arms up a bit.

But Shlatt does nothing. "It's no fun to shoot you. Besides what about our game, and your wife, but there is someone who I might shoot." Shlatt says, mumbling the middle part. Phil moves closer to me, Ranboo and Tubbo, we were leading the group. "And who would that be?"

After Phil said that Shlatt smiled and pointed the gun in our direction. "Who do you think." A gun shot rang through the room, me and a few others ducked down. I heard a Yelp near by, but I kept my head down. After about 30 seconds I looked over at Ranboo, they were ok. But then I look over at Tubbo.

Tubbo's POV:

After Shlatt fired the gun a few people including Tommy ducked, though I wasn't quick enough and got shot in the side. It messes up my balance and I fell back. I just layed there for a moment, in shock. After a second I felt the pain from my side, and put my hand over the wound.

I try to look around to make sure everyone else is ok, but it makes my side sting and I hiss in pain. "Tubbo are you ok?" Tommy asks panicked moving over to me. "Yeah, I'm fine, what about everyone else?" I ask. Tommy looks around the room a bit.

"Everyone else is fine, but Tubbo I don't think you are, obviously, I mean you were just shot" Tommy says. "I feel fine, so stop over reacting" I say, I try to move again, but stop because it just makes more pain in side. "Excuse me, but it's very rude to ignore other people in the room with you"

"Yeah well get shot, but I doubt anyone will care then either" Ranboo says, sounding pissed off (obviously). I don't get why everyone is making a big deal about this. I move my hand away from my injury, my hand is covered in blood. "Oh, that's not good" I say calmly.

Tommy looks back at me when I say that, "Jesus! Tubbo you're not ok, how are you acting so calm?" Tommy asks panicked. "Shlatt let us through" Phil says walking up to him. "Now now, back up" Shlatt says pointing his gun at him. Phil stops walking but doesn't move further away. "Let us through"

"And why should I?" Shlatt asks. "Because you fuckn shot someone?" Phil starts to raise his voice. "So? He's my son, I shot him on purpose" Shlatt says in a matter-of-fact voice.

Phil's POV:

I look over to where Tubbo and Tommy are, Ranboo's moved some, and I see that Tubbo dropped his gun. Shlatt looks to where I'm looking and realizes what I'm thinking. "If you even move a muscle toward that gun then I will shot again" Shlatt threatens.

Ranboo was close to the gun, they look at it then at me. He reaches down and grabs the gun instantly pointing it at Shlatt, who didn't realize what was happening until Ranboo already had the gun. "I would put that gun down if you didn't want your friend to get shot again."

I can tell Ranboo starts thinking about and starts to lower the gun, "Good, now toss it over" Shlatt tells him. They walk in front of Tubbo and Tommy seemingly getting closer to Shlatt before stopping and raising the gun. "If you want me to put the gun down then you'll have to shoot me" Ranboo says pointing the gun at Shlatt again.

Words Before A/N: 1415

A/N:

Soo... This was a long one, I didn't plan for it to be this long but that's just what happened I guess. I did break this up because my usual chapter length is around 700 words and 1415 is over double that 😅. I will work on the second part of this chapter soon, have a good night/day :)
